And I’m perfectly happy. I can go on international vacations whenever the fancy strikes me. My time is my own. I have friends with similar interests. While most of them are single and childless one close friend does have a couple of kids. It doesn’t keep us from interacting on a regular basis.
And yes, I have a cat. :-)
Marriage and kids aren’t for everyone.
“Marriage and kids aren’t for everyone.”
I respect that. In fact, you point out what you like about your choice, and you sound very happy. Good for you.
“Marriage and kids aren’t for everyone.”
That is true, and for women who are natured like you, they finally got the choice to live your way and support themselves with high-paying jobs if they achieved at a high level, as opposed to having their career choices limited as they used to be. For example, if a woman wants to be a 747 pilot, she can go for the job. She used to be told she could not pursue such work.
The woman in the article is now unhappy with her choices at age 50, but any number of women who made similar choices are not unhappy.
Its different for men, It really is no comparison.
Yeah, they are. Only our modern, screwed up culture makes it seem otherwise.
